2015! A new year a new class and our inquiry topic is energy. Yesterday we watched a video called Saving Heironymus which tells you about greenhouse gasses and what they are.

So greenhouse gasses, what are they?

I think I should explain what the greenhouse effect is. Say there was a glass box around he world, the suns rays shine through the glass. But the light will run out but the heat will be trapped inside the glass box, heating the earth. Carbon dioxide ‘makes the heat stronger’ so the more carbon dioxide we produce the hotter the earth will be.

Most people’s house hold appliances run on fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are things like coal and oil.
